2. Performing Arts

   • Dance
     • Contemporary art is complicated to understand. Because? It is something that is not predictable, it is the new thing, it is the break with what we know as art. In dance, contemporaneity becomes more evident, as it no longer has a clear structure, being more concerned with the transmission of concepts, ideas and feelings than with aesthetics.
   • Theater
     • The word theater can mean both the building in which the different forms of art are displayed and a limited art. The art of acting prospered on sacred grounds in India, Egypt, Greece, China and in the churches of the Middle Ages. The way in which man discovered to reveal his feelings of love and hate.
